Here's how to find your passion and why in business and in life. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” Running and starting a business is one of the hardest things in your life. Everyone is working against you in the beginning, that`s how it feels like. It is like the whole world is conspiring against you. But once you push through that and you have a lot of motivation and you find your motivation, then it doesn`t matter how it feels like in the beginning, that you have all these problems and that you do not have the skills yet. Because once you have your actual motivation, then you can push through that, get your first sale and you have to prove that what you are doing works and then you can achieve whatever you want to achieve. So, how do you find your why? I have worked with a few self-development coaches, so how do you think the life of a self-development coach looks like? Some people think it is like: “Oh,

Here's my favorite places to go as a digital nomad (based on 5 years experience). “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” Today we are going to talk about where to go as a digital nomad. I have been travelling the world for the past six years and I go to a new country every 2 – 3 months. Right now I am in Riga and in the next six months I am going to go to 2 or 3 more countries. So, I keep travelling from country to country all the time. So far I have been to 35+ countries and I have been in almost all continents basically. Here are my top locations that I can advise you to go based on what you really need. There are a few factors to consider when you are choosing where to go exactly. There is money, there is, if you want, night life, other source of ways of meeting people. Here are a few places that fit what I want. I want parties and I want to go to places where it is easy to reach entrepreneurs. For exampl

Michael runs a $165k/year agency, $100k of which is profit. Here's how he does it. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” I started this business really early. I wanted to learn to code when I was 12. I ended up doing exactly that. When I was 14 I started to get customers. I started to provide coding projects and later on I got into the marketing stuff because customers started to ask for my services. I tried to find a way to get my customers’ websites ranked higher in Google. And I started to include more and more marketing services in my portfolio. My sales funnel was not created by will. I am trying to deliver the best value to the customer. By default we are relying on satisfied customers who refer us to other customers. My first sale was from a referral. Then we pay them some money, like 10% of the revenue. 90% of the projects we do end up with their friends and family and coworkers hiring us for other proje

Here's my story on why and how I started a business right out of college. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” I started a business right out of college 8 years ago. I was thinking: “What am I going to do with my life?” I had done two internships. They were a little boring to me and that’s why I started reading books about entrepreneurship. I was like: “Do I want to do jobs like this one for the rest of my life or do I want to do what I have been reading about those books?” A friend of mine suggested starting a business together. We had absolutely no experience. We did not know how to sell, how to market. We did not know anything. We just came with an idea of buying a little digital camera and we went to companies and offered them to make a video for their company. We were rejected from most companies, but a few people actually bought from us. After half a year my friend gave up. But I kept going. I did not ca

Here's my number 1 tip to master anything. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” Today, we are going to talk about how to become a master in anything you want to master in the world. In this podcast, I am going to share with you my number 1 tip that I use on a daily basis with me and my clients to get them and myself the best possible results and get us successfully on the path to mastery. When you go to a party or you are having fun, what you want to do is be in the moment and have fun and just relax. That is what most people are doing - just relaxing and not thinking too much what is going on. If you want to be on the path to mastery, you need to be training and practicing something with a purpose. You need to sit down and just focus for that one thing for extended period of time on a regular basis. Here is the thing that most people miss. They combine the having fun mindset with the mastery mindset. It is co

Here's how to find your purpose. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” We have all faced this situation in our lives where we are being put in a box. In a primary school, college we are being told what to do, where to go, where to show up, what to study. If you do anything that is outside of the box you are considered crazy. Most people in their entire lives never get the opportunity to truly learn how to be creative, to develop that creativity muscle and use their brain in a way that no one else uses. I am not going to tell you exactly what your purpose should be, but I am going to help you determine what kind of things you should look at so that you can find your own purpose. Common misconception that people have is that you need to have a purpose and you need to go and act upon that purpose. You do not need something to act upon it. You may want to be a writer or you may want to be a YouTuber. You can go wr

Here's what I've learned from coaching 300 people to build a business in 3 months... “Want to connect on facebook?

I have done this with more than 3 hundred people at the current count. So, what are the things you need to know to get started?

Here are the 2 main methods to choose your niche and market. That's who to sell to... SUPER important if you're starting out! “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” Today I am going to talk about who to sell to. If you have service and you want to sell to companies who should you sell to? Who is the ideal customer and how to find these customers? There are several approaches to this problem in business that I found that work. Now I am going to discuss my favorite approaches. There are, of course, other approaches as well. We are going to focus on the most direct sales possible for your business if you are selling to other companies. If you can figure this out, you are not going to waste time selling to the wrong people and you are going to be able to charge more money, because the people that are buying from you are actually looking for what you are selling instead of you having to force your product on them.

I've just interviewed Henry, a Daily Business Hustle mastermind member from Africa. Here's how he's built his business and started traveling the world. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” What exactly are you selling Henry? - I am currently selling social media marketing services to businesses. I started doing this in my day job before I joined the mastermind. I wanted to start working online, but did not know how to. I joined the mastermind and 2 weeks later I got my first sale online. How did you learn social media marketing? – I read some things online, looked at good social media pages and saw what works and what does not. When I joined the mastermind I spoke with other members in the mastermind who were doing similar things What were the resources which you learned from? - I can recommend a book from Gary Vaynerchuk called “Jab Jab”. There is very good stuff on how to conduct yourself in social media.

Here's the first rule of sales. Everything they say is a lie until they pay. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” Everything they say when they do not pay is a lie. This is the number one rule in my mastermind, the Daily Business Hustle, for sales. When anyone is doing any kind of sale and they tell me that the client did not pay, because they had to talk with their wife, husband, business partner or whatever. Everything like that or any kind of excuse is automatically labeled as a lie. Why is that the case? People are very sneaky. They do not want to tell you the real reason, because they do not want to hurt your feelings. They do not want you to close them yet or whatever else reason they have. Or maybe they do not want to buy from you. They do not want to tell you, because you may be upset. Everything they say that is not leading to you getting the money is a lie. For example, we had one mastermind memb

He exited that business and he is now selling food in Europe that he is importing from Asia. In the beginning Matt wanted to make a living from the comfort of his home.

Matt has been able to use platforms like Upwork and Fiverr to find people who can outsource the work. Using those people together with the Upwork platform where

Here's my take on how to become a good marketer. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” I am going to talk about what it takes to become an entrepreneur and a marketer. I am not a full time marketer. But I run my own business, so I am in charge of marketing for my own business. I am capable of talking of what the main attributes a marketer should have. A major thing that I am doing for my business is marketing. All business people that do not have a huge company are usually in charge of their own marketing and sometimes even sales as well. What are some of the attributes that a marketer should have? I can speak from my own experience as someone who creates content on YouTube and markets like that. It takes extreme empathy with my audience. Anyone who is a content marketer needs to understand what your audience actually wants. This applies to almost any type of business. If you do not have extreme empathy for

Here's what I've learned from eCommerce and malls... “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” I want to compare selling products in a mall and selling online in general. There are a few lessons you can learn from selling at the mall, which is the traditional place to sell products and a few things you can learn from ecommerce and selling online. Lessons From Selling at The Mall Malls are designed in a very specific way. They are designed in a way for you to get lost. It is very hard to find what you are looking for in a mall, because they are designed to trap people. All your needs are taken care of in the mall. There are many places if you want to go the bathroom. Also, there are multiple restaurants if you want to eat something. There are places to sit depending on the demographic on the mall. Everything is designed in a way for you to stay for as long as possible. If you sell online, there is no need for th

Here are 4 hidden persuasion techniques you have probably never heard of, they will teach you how to become persuasive. This is a crucial skill all entrepreneurs should have. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” I am going to share with you a few persuasion techniques that I have learned from 9 years in being in sales, coaching people and doing business in general. If you learn how to persuade people properly and use these techniques to their fullest potential, you will be able to work with the best people and get the best clients. If you do not learn this, you are less likely to grow to a level that is beyond average. Every single successful person is very good at persuasion. That is one of the most important skills that they use on a daily basis to get results in their business. 1 – Treat people like they need to be persuaded. People get pushed in their entire lives and they become numb to this sort of tr

Here's how Matt runs an online business while traveling the world. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” Matt is a member and instructor in Daily Business Hustle. He runs his own online business that makes about $10 000 per month. Matt sells services to companies. He also runs a company selling food. He leads a very interesting lifestyle and he is able to automate a lot of what he does. He is very efficient and he can focus a lot of his time on business. What are your earliest memories in business? I was trading things at elementary school, selling little toys to people. It was like going to the mall and buying wholesale toys and reselling them at school. In high school I was trying to get people interested in business. I have started selling things on eBay. I was buying things from China and then reselling them. I used to work in New Zealand a lot. I had a couple of jobs. After that I went to the Netherlands

Do entrepreneurs need college? Why do a lot of them drop out? Here are the answers. “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” How traditional education system kills entrepreneurship and the natural entrepreneurial drive in people? It makes people into bureaucrats. I always hear that people are talking about school and after they get their degree they will get automatically some kind of job and security. But when I talk to entrepreneurs I hear exactly the opposite. Unless you are an engineer, computer scientist or a doctor, there is no worth in getting a degree, because only in a few industries there is a huge in supply in demand difference in the favor of the employees. In most industries if you graduate you are worth a lot less than someone who does not have a degree, but has many years of experience. The school system was created by bureaucrats. The people who teach in the school system are trained bureaucrats

“Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” Taking the decision to go from a freelancer to entrepreneur is very important and everybody who wants to be very successful has to take it. There are a lot of fears and obstacles that you may face and you can find the solutions that you are looking for in this video. What are the things that you can improve to move to being an entrepreneur? I have a friend who has been a freelancer for many years and he does not want to go to entrepreneur because he does not want to do administrative work. He wants to focus on the actual work. There is a tendency that creative people want to do the work themselves, because that is what they are really interested and passionate about. A great example is Elon Musk. Even though he is the CEO of the company, he is still doing a lot of the engineering work himself, because that is his passion. Being an entrepreneur or a business owner means th

There's one thing that so-called success gurus keep telling you that's a lie and is preventing you from achieving success. Check out this podcast to find out what it is... “Want to connect on facebook? Add me on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/aleksander.vitkin Follow me on Instagram: @aleksvitkin” The best fighter is the flow less fighter. That is the fighter that is so well prepared and never makes a mistake. In war, if you make a mistake you die. How is this related to the lie that you are being told? The lie is that you need to make mistakes over and over and eventually some day you will achieve success. Truly successful people build a habit of success and not a habit of failure. The people who have success momentum are the people who achieve much in life, compared to everyone else who just achieve average results. Here is an example: If a man is super successful in sport and he goes into business and builds a billion dollar company, he becomes a teacher or a coach. If you are in your 20s and
